As part of FedEx´s Planning & Engineering department, you will handle various tasks within problem-solving, continuous improvement processes, workflow optimization, and operational site planning and design.

The Planning & Engineering team for the Nordics and Ireland currently has eight members placed in Copenhagen, Dublin, and Stockholm and is now planning to expand the team in Stockholm.

• Analyzing, identifying and defining the need for improvement in processes to maximize its efficiency
• Analyzing large amount of data to optimize transport flow
• Adapting and using modeling tools to translate complex analysis into accurate and realistic operational plans
• Conducting studies e.g. the implementation of new technology, facility design, functional specifications, and feasibility studies

Since the role involves many internal and external contacts, you´re a good communicator and have a good ability to create and maintain long-term working relationships. You like to work on several different projects and are motivated by finding the best and most effective solution for a problem.
